>I know that only 4% of US citizens have passports

You're off by an order of magnitude. It's actually about 38% [0]. Bear in mind Americans even need a passport to travel to Canada or Mexico now.

I also do not think that preventing Americans from travelling abroad will improve their global perspective.
